How 10 Be Agreeable.

IThNih'het thIette qua tHfDutFlc,
 Very rarely, if ever, young persons acquire the ability to converse with ease and iiuency. This Implies. first of all, good ideas, clearly and sensibly expressed. An empty mind never made good Mlker; remember, you cannot draw water out of an empty we'll" Next in importance Is self. possession. Self possession k nine points in the hw"-~in good breeding.
 A good voice k as essential to self possession as good ideas are essential to fluent language. The voice, from infancy, should be carefully trnimsi and developed: full, clear, flexible voice is one of the surcst indications of good breeding: 1t falls like music on the car, and while 1t pleases the listener it adds to the confidence of its pOsscssor, be he ever 70 timid. One may be witty without being popular. volnble without being agreeable; a great talker and yet great bore. IL Is wise, then, to note carefully the fol. lowing suggestions:
 Re sincere; he who habituaily sneers at everything, will not only render himself disagreeable to others, but will soon cease to find pleasure in life.
 Re frank; frank, open countenAnce, and clear, cheery laugh, are worth far more, even socially, than "ped. antry In A stiff cravat."
 Be amiable, yon may hide yindie- tive nature under polite exterior for time, as cat masks its sharp claws in velvet fur, but the Least proyoca- ton brings out one as quickly as the other; ill-natured persons are always disliked.
 Be sensible; society never lacks for fools. If you want elbow room, Ego up higher" @m
 Be cheerful if you have no great trouble on your mind. you have n0 right to render other people miserable by your long face and dolorous tones. If you do you will be generally avoided.
 Above all, be cordial; true cordality unites ali the qualities we have enu- mernted.

 How tell thy glories alls Fairer than earth and sea- in heaven above None answer to my call So fond and loving as thou, best and dearest; To thee belong All the sweet songs thy pure soul nearest, And all the day long Nature greets thee in her gentlest voices, Praising the eyes so bright;- For thee the spring time violet rejoices, And through the mellow night The nightingale plaintiye calls to thee In voice so tender, O. dearest, how utter lone my life would be Robbed of thy bloom and splcndor! How shall I name thy glories, sweetest.

These alone would make a decent town, but Birmingham's future does not rest on these railroads. The railroads are here, not because Of the advance in town lots or the booming of the town, but because the mines and furnaces and foundries and manu- : factories of this city are turning out daily volume of freight sufficient to require 1000 cars. They are here to get that freight, and the freight is here because iron ore and coal and lime-rock lie here against each other in such magnificent quantities and qualities that no other place in the ! United States can produce . better or cheaper iron.
 And it must be remembered that the consumption of iron doubles every ten years in this country. It is steadily driving wood from the field. It is the ability of this place to make iron at profit, when seventy per cent of all the furnaces in the country have to shut down, that brings railroads, fur naces, manufacturers and 'booms.'"

A Priest who Was With New.

"Were you with Ney's army when he
turned it over to Napoleon?"
Il was, and well remember the day
that Ney's act of treachery took place.
Ney's and the struggling army of Napo-
leon met at OlOe bridge, better known at
the time as the bridge of the Holy Ghost.
NapoleOn's army was encamped a few
miles from the bridge, opposite our lines.
The morning after the encampment we
saw some flags of truce in advance of Ma
poleon's army and it was then that the
men began to suspect Ney's plans, but the
suspicious were not even whispered Soon
the flags disappeared and Ney gave ord
ers to prepare for an attack and marched
on to the bridge When we reached the
opposite side of the bridge we noticed
about dozen men advancing from Ma
poleOn's army on horseback, bearing flags
of truce. Our army, which, all told, did
not exceed 10000 men, came to halt. The
men on horse back advanced and the cen
ter one of the group proved to be Napole-
on himself. At sight of him Ney aid his
staff dismounted. Napoleon also dis
mounted and was warmly embraced by
Ney and his officers. OF course a shout
in honor of Napoleon went up from our
ranks. Well, history has recorded the
rest. We were forced to combine with
Napoleen's army of boys between the ages
of 10 and 20 years and go on to Waterloo
and defeat."-Father Neyron in Chicago

Hunting in It's True Sense.

The way to hunt is to hunt with dogs.
Some of these alleged hunters amuse me-.
They get into big pair of boots, put on
leather pants and leather coat, fancy
cap, a belt full of cartridges, q game bag
and shotgun, and then they go out and
scare up some poor little grail and bang
away at it. That's what they call hunt
ing. l am glad to say that no rifle or
musket was ever pressed against nv
shoulder. When go hunting I get ON
my horse and take out my dogs and 7
ride gayly over hill and dale untilthe
dogs scent a fox or a rabbit, and then.
look outl
Rough on the rabbit or the fox. Well
if they get caught, it's their look out;
they are not popped off with rife, but
given a chance for their lives, and that's
hunting in its true sense.-R. S. Macdon-
aid III Globe-Democrat

Profits of the Book Trade.

The public being 1evel-headed in bust
ness affairs, it is not surprising that out
of five millions of readers only five thou
sand at the utmost are willing to pay $3.50
for what should not cost over so cent The
trade are well satisfied with such small
sales, since the get up Of a $50 novel
does not cost more than % cents a copy,
or 81 600 for 5000 copies; for these the pub
lie pays s., 800 or clear profit Of 50, 800 on
the - 600 invested. OF this profit the au-
thor receives only $40. the remaining
50 80 are what the trade make out of his
brains, time and labor.
To get the same amount of profit out of
a 50-cent edition the trade would be
obliged TO handle nearly $4,000 copies; but
then the authors royalty, if only ten
cents a copy, would be nearly $4,000; a
fact of no concern to the trade, so long as
they can make as much out of 5000 cop
les at 81. 80 as out OF 1000 at 50 cents

NOT GLAD, NOR SAID.

You sang little song to-day
It was not sad, it was not gay
The very theme was nigh outwOrn.
Two lovers met, as lovers may;
They had not met-since yesterday;
They must not meet again-till morni
And did they meet again, my dear?
Did morning come and find them here
To see each others eyes again?
Alas! on that you are not clear;
For hearts will shift as winds will veer,
And love can veer like any vane.
All! no, think some sudden craze,
Some bitter spite befel their days;
What was that plaintive minor for?
No more together lie their ways;
Remote, perhaps, the lover strays-
Perhaps the lady comes no more.
So strange the numbers sob and swell;
No; there's no guessing what befell.
1t is the sweetest song you sing;
Not sad, and yeti cannot tell;
Not glad, and yet-'tis very we'll
Like love, like life, like anything
